Re: green roofs

**F*@aol.com**

I see Ed Snodgrass (a.k.a. The Snodfather) is speaking at the GWA meeting  at 
the Phila. Flower Show. He definitely knows his stuff. 
A local nursery, Creek Hill, got a contract to grow Live Roof panels (Dave  
McKenzie's brand) this past summer for a public building somewhere near  Phila. 
The Live Roof system grows large panels, like giant plug trays, with a  very 
dense substrate and lots of Sedum. I'd love to see how they get those  panels 
up to the roof; they're quite heavy and not terribly rigid.
Lancaster County is looking to add green roofs to half a dozen public  
projects in the next couple of years, with state and federal funding help.
